From Bullitt County Public Schools, the infographic above indicates the various positives and improvement areas of the current state of communication throughout the district. Between praising the weekly newsletter, highlighting teachers efficiently relaying information to families, and stating various communication levels between classrooms and households, voices across the county were heard and ideas were sparked. With these insights, the process of families being in-the-know can be better improved.

The feedback has been voiced all across the county, and now the pieces are being put together in the puzzle.

On Tuesday, May 26, the Bullitt County Public Schools Department of Communications released a survey to families for connection feedback. Many strategies have worked, while others are being refined. With these insights, the process of families being in-the-know can be better improved.

What’s Working 

Families have praised and valued the weekly emails and newsletters that they have been reading on a regular basis. Because of this, the county will continue prioritizing these consistent updates.

Many teachers across the district were praised by name for keeping parents completely in the loop on various activities, tests, and schedules.

Commitments to Move Forward

Bullitt County has been working hard to ensure each individual feels confident using the BCPS mobile app to access Rooms, where teachers share announcements and updates. In order to enhance the user experience, ongoing staff training will be provided along with clear, step-by-step “how-to” resources for families to ensure the app is reliable and user-friendly.

Survey comments highlight that communication levels have varied between different classrooms and overall school buildings. To address this, efforts to establish consistent communication are being prioritized across each class, building, and grade level.
